Ning Rongrong's delicate body trembled incessantly, tears streaming down her face. She murmured to herself, "The Spirit Hall will never kill my father, Sword Grandpa, or Bone Grandpa."
"Something terrible has happened! Something terrible has happened, Young Sect Master!"
At this moment, a Soul Emperor- level elder of the Ning family who remained in the Seven Treasure Glazed quickly entered the main hall and addressed Ning Rongrong.
Ning Rongrong wiped away her tears, her heart trembling violently, and asked in a trembling voice, "Uncle Ning Ke, what terrible thing has happened? Dad, Sword Grandpa, and Bone Grandpa, has something really happened to them?"
Ning Ke closed his eyes in anguish and said, "Young Sect Master, the Sect Master and Elders Sword and Bone have both been executed on the orders of Xue Ye."
Ning Rongrong's face was contorted with rage, her eyes blazing with boundless hatred. "Why? How could this happen? How could Father and Grandpa Sword and Bone be executed by Xue Ye?! Why did Xue Ye kill Father and Grandpa Sword and Bone?"
"Young Sect Master, after initial inquiries, it turns out that you secretly assisted the Spirit Hall by providing them with detailed information about the Heaven Dou army's camp layout. Thanks to this information, the Spirit Hall Spirit Hall attacked the Heaven Dou army's camp, destroyed their supplies, and thus won the war."
"As the saying goes, 'An army marches on its stomach,' and it can be said that the Heaven Dou Empire's disastrous defeat was orchestrated by the sect leader himself."
Ning Ke's face was heavy, and her eyes reddened. "When the truth came out, Xue Ye was furious and executed the entire sect, Elder Sword and Bone, and all the disciples of the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Sect who went to fight."
This message was spread by Qian Daoliu when the remains of the Xue Ye had just returned to Heaven Dou City. He dispatched Soul Master of the Speed Clan were already hidden in Heaven Dou City, and who were at the Soul Emperor level or above.
As soon as the news spread, Heaven Dou City was in an uproar. Almost 99% of the Heaven Dou City believed this unconfirmed information immediately. This was mainly because the Heaven Dou Empire had suffered such a crushing defeat, and the people of Heaven Dou City had suffered a huge blow to their national honor and national pride.
At this moment, they desperately need an excuse to vent their anger, their sense of failure and humiliation, and to find psychological comfort.
Let alone an excuse like the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile's defection to the enemy, which has some credibility, even a completely mindless excuse like the Heaven Dou Army's cooks accidentally putting in the wrong seasoning, causing the entire Heaven Dou Army to have diarrhea on the battlefield and ultimately leading to the defeat of the war, would still be believed by the vast majority of people.
"Traitors of the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Sect School!!"
"All you bastards from the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Sect, get out and behead them!!"
"Traitorous dogs of the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Sect!!"
At this moment, a series of thunderous curses rang out outside the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Sect. It was a commoner from Heaven Dou City who had learned of the false rumors and believed them without a doubt. He came to the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Sect's residence and roared angrily.
The number of civilians outside the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Sect surged in a J-shaped curve, and the loudness of their roars reached the Seven Treasure Hall from a distance of countless meters.
Upon hearing this, Ning Ke anxiously said, "Young Sect Master, let's quickly gather the disciples of the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Sect and retreat!"
Based on the level of anger among the people of Heaven Dou City, Ning Ke could easily imagine that the shops of the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Sect School in the Heaven Dou Empire, as well as the Seven Treasure Street opened by the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Sect, must have been completely destroyed by these somewhat crazed civilians. The Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Sect disciples, and even the helpers and shop assistants, were all indiscriminately attacked and killed by these civilians.
The Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Sect is naturally not afraid of these crazed people, but the problem is the Heaven Dou Imperial Family. The Heaven Dou Imperial Family must have received the news, and it is believed that it will not be long before the Heaven Dou Imperial Family settles its scores with the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Sect.
The Heaven Dou Imperial Family did indeed suffer a heavy blow, but the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Sect also suffered a heavy blow. Without the protection of Sword and Bone Douluo, an army of 100,000 could probably flatten the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Sect School.
It should be noted that the royal family also possesses Tang Sect Hidden Weapon, so they probably wouldn't need 100,000 troops; 50,000 would suffice.
"Go, go, go, go! Let's get going!"
Ning Rongrong nodded hastily. She was no fool. Judging from the roars of the people from Heaven Dou City outside the sect, she knew exactly how difficult the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Sect's situation was. It wouldn't be an exaggeration to say that they were forced into a desperate situation.
At some point, the angry shouts of the people outside the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Sect ceased. In front of the Seven Treasure Hall, two rows of fully armed taxi soldiers walked in. Judging from their armor, they were the most elite Heaven Dou Imperial Family Heaven Dou Royal Knights. Judging from the cloth wrapped around their waists and the bulging state under the cloth, they were also carrying Tang Sect Hidden Weapon.
Two rows of Heaven Dou soldiers stood in neat rows in front of the Seven Treasure Hall. Between the soldiers, Heaven Dou Crown Prince Xue Haicang walked in with heavy steps, his expression equally somber.
"Your Highness"
Ning Rongrong and Ning Ke walked out of the Seven Treasure Hall. Ning Ke bowed and was sweating profusely.
Ning Rongrong remained unmoved. She had no idea of the rules for bowing to the Crown Prince, and the person in front of her was the most proud son of Xue Ye, the enemy who killed her father and grandfather.
Xue Haicang's eyes burned with desire as he glanced at Ning Rongrong. Although Ning Rongrong's figure couldn't compare to the extremely hot women of the Star Luo Zhu Clan family, she was still quite good as a Soul Master. Moreover, her captivating face could definitely be called the number one beauty in Heaven Dou City.
As the gathering place of nobles in the Heaven Dou Empire, Heaven Dou City certainly has many beauties, but none can be described as absolutely stunning. There were none in the previous generation, and in this generation, after Zhu Zhuqing and Xiao Wu left, only Ning Rongrong remains.
The Seven Treasure Hall.
Xue Haicang sat on Ning Fengzhi's carved wooden chair, his brows revealing the majesty of an emperor.
The Heaven Dou Empire differs from the Star Luo Empire. In the Star Luo Empire, if you lack sufficient strength and your backing has collapsed, even if you are the crown prince, your position as the first in line to succeed the emperor is still precarious. However, the Heaven Dou Empire does not value strength much. If the previous emperor abdicates or dies of old age, and the crown prince is recognized, he will immediately ascend the throne and become the Heaven Dou Emperor, posing little threat.
Xue Haicang placed his hand on the armrest and said, "Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Sect, you have colluded with the Spirit Hall and betrayed the Heaven Dou Empire. Do you know your crimes?!"
"What crime has our Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Sect committed? It was clearly the Heaven Dou Empire's selfish actions that led to the attack on the Spirit Hall. Father chose to help the Spirit Hall, which is dedicated to maintaining peace and tranquility on the continent, and stood on the side of justice. What crime has our Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Sect committed!"
When Ning Rongrong saw that Xue Haicang, the son of her father and grandfather's killer, not only dared to come to the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Sect, but also sat in her father's seat and shamelessly condemned the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Sect School, she could no longer hold back her anger and retorted as if she were a member of the Spirit Hall.
Seeing that Ning Rongrong was still protecting the Spirit Hall, Xue Haicang was so angry that the veins on his forehead bulged.
